These URLs may be of interest. If an emergency is defined as an event
that was unanticipated in occupance and limited in duration, clearly
this is no emergency.


That's TECHNICAL ... "legal" ... has NOTHING to do with how potential
passengers should act or react.

Passengers are convinced the 787 is a death-trap. That's ALL it takes
to destroy it.


You are convinced passengers are convinced. There have been no deaths,
no injuries, and only limitted damage to this point. A minor tweek will
likely solve the battery problem. It appears to be a problem with the
APU not knowing how to handle Lithium batteries, as the problem occurs
when on the ground with the APU running the system.


I love it when people who have no ****ing idea what's going on, make ****
up like "a minor tweek will fix it".
